1 Introduction To agnSmart!CMS Classic

Thank you for purchasing agnSmart!CMS Classic. agnSmart!CMS Classic is a Web Content Management System for Active Server Pages (ASP), which allows you to manage website content easily and efficiently. Designated content contributors can update content without the need to understand web programming or HTML. The web designer can keep tight control over the look and feel of the site through design and layout while, at the same time, the web administrator can manage every aspect of the site from security clearance to generating reports.
WHY WEB CONTENT MANAGEMENT?

Traditionally, as the amount of information on a website increases, the ability to update it efficiently decreases because of the number of static HTML pages on the website. Static HTML pages typically need to be changed by a professional web developer or someone within the organization who has been specially trained in HTML. With a Web Content Management System like agnSmart!CMS Classic, clients or other members of your organization are empowered with the ability to make content changes to a website without necessitating constant requests to the web developer. By separating the sites design from its content, key personnel can update the website without disrupting the sites developer. For example, if a product line changes each quarter, the sales coordinator can easily modify product descriptions and quickly publish them to the website. Meanwhile, the PR manager updates the content of the new product press release. In addition, all these changes can be managed through workflow capability. And, while all of this is going on, the web designer is updating the PR template to include pictures of the new products. agnSmart!CMS Classic also allows clients of the commercial web developer to make minor changes to their own website without the delay and disruption of relaying the new content. Clients are free to update and change the contents to their website without the delay of having to contact the commercial developer, then relay the desired change and then wait for it to happen. This frees up more time for the developer to focus on acquiring new customers and agnSmart!CMS Classic lets the client collaborate with the developer in order to reduce development time.
HOW AGNSMART!CMS CLASSIC WORKS

Web content is managed by the Web Content Manager application that runs in the web browser. Visitors access your website as normal; however, a user ID and password is required to modify content with Web Content Manager. These are defined by the Web Administrator to allow or restrict access to tasks and functions in Web Content Manager. For example, a marketing assistant may have access to add and change content, but cannot publish the changes to the website without approval from a marketing vice In addition to limiting access, logging in with a user ID and password acts as an electronic signature or fingerprint, allowing the Web Administrator to track who changed what and when.

agnSmart!CMS
Because Web Content Manager runs in your web browser you can change your websites content from any internet connected PC. No separate software needs to be installed on the PC. You can create your sites layout using your favorite WYSIWYG HTML editor such as MS FrontPage, Macromedia Dreamweaver or Adobe GoLive. Then its just a matter of cutting and pasting your HTML into the agnSmart!CMS Classic Web Content Manager to create Page Templates. You can even upload your page templates as ASP files.

Article Fields
Article Fields contain information used in the article for easier and more accurate insertion of information. This information can include who wrote the article {{$author}}, the title of the article {{$title}} or when the article is to be released to the website {{$startdate}}. There are a number of fields in an article. For complete a list of valid Article Fields include: Title: A brief description of the content.

agnSmart!CMS
Category
This is the grouping of articles organized by theme or idea, allowing for consistent formatting (i.e., Whats New). Similarly, you may create hierarchies of categories, essentially creating subcategories within subcategories. For example, a company may have a category on their website called Press Relations. Contained within that could be a category called Latest News. Within the Latest News category, there could be have additional categories of Press Releases, articles from Trade Publications, Awards, White Papers, Conferences, etc. A category also defines what templates will be used for the content contained within them.
Category List Template

The HTML code defining the font, color, and general layout of a list of categories. Category List Templates are ideal for creating dynamic menu navigation.

Discard Article
If a publisher is not happy with changes made to a checked in article, he/she can discard those changes and revert to the version of the article that is currently visible to website visitors.
Multiple page templates can be generated for use with different categories so each can have its own distinct appearance.

6 Templates
Templates help you to create a website with the desired look and feel you wish to communicate to your visitors. By using templates, you can achieve consistent appearance and functionality throughout your website. Templates are
accessible to all users with the appropriate security level There are five types of templates that can be created in agnSmart!CMS Classic Web Content Manager. The five types of templates available are: 1. HTML Page Templates 2. ASP Page Templates 3. Article List Templates 4. Article Layout Templates 5. Category List Templates. There are two options available for each template: 1. 2. Create a new template, and View with the option of editing or deleting.

Select the type of template you wish to view; for example the HTML Page Templates. Click on the HTML Page Templates icon. 3.

Both Page Templates determines the overall look and feel of each page on your site. In working with Page Templates, the first decision that needs to be made when creating a new website is whether to use HTML or ASP Page Templates. This decision affects nearly every feature later with agnSmart!CMS Classic so it's important to choose carefully. HTML Page Templates are built into agnSmart!CMS Classic. A HTML Page Template must contain the {{content}} tag, telling agnSmart!CMS Classic where to put the dynamic content. Use ASP Page Templates if you want to integrate your own ASP code along side of agnSmart!CMS Classic or if you want to programatically lay out dynamic content from the agnSmart!CMS Classic database, e.g. Dynamic Menus or some of the optional add ons products such as Sitemap. If you choose to use ASP Page Templates, use the equivalent ASP function that corresponds to an tag (e.g. <%=Content()%> ). To create a new HTML Page Template: 1. Design your HTML layout in a WYSIWYG editor such as MS FrontPage, Macromedia Dreamweaver, or Adobe GoLive. 2. Select HTML Page Templates under the Assets Panel. 3. Click on New HTML Page Template button at top of HTML Page Templates window. The New HTML Page Template window will appear.
Create an easily identifiable name for your HTML Page Template such as Products, Press Release, or Printer Friendly Page. Images should reside in your local directory and be relatively linked in the Page Template (for example, a product photograph could reside in the images/products/ mypic.gif). A similar directory can be created in agnSmart!CMS Classic and your images uploaded to it.

4. 5.
Enter the name for the new HTML Page Template. Cut and paste your HTML code into the HTML Page Template HTML section.
When creating your page template, position your logo, graphics and other layout before placing the {{content}} tag into the area where you want the dynamic content 6. Click on the Save button to save the new HTML Page Template. Once the new HTML Page Template has been saved, you may preview your HTML Page Template in a browser by clicking on the Preview Template button. The content will not be populated, but the AgnSmart!CMS Classic tags will be displayed. agnSmart!CMS Classic allows you to select your own ASP code instead of using static HTML code. With ASP code, you can upload existing page templates through Web Content Manager instead of cutting and pasting. This will give tighter control over the look and feel of your site. An ASP Page Template can contain your own ASP code to run side by side. This gives you the control of ASP with the flexibility of creating your own templates in agnSmart!CMS Classic. To run your own ASP Page Template, you must include the agnSmart!CMS Classic Display API (envivodisplayAPI.asp) at the very top of your file. The agnSmart!CMS Classic API reads the query string and generates the dynamic content. To include the agnSmart!CMS Classic Display API, the first line of your ASP file must be:  You now have access to many functions and can be called, such as <%=Content()%>, within your page template or you can use the Response.write statement. Printer Friendly HTML or ASP Page Templates Making printer friendly page templates is a useful tool for visitors that wish to print out a sites page. To create printer friendly page template: 1. Reduce the number of graphics on the page template to a minimum, and note the ID number or ASP template name visible in the each of the View Page Templates table. 2. Edit your configuration Preferences General settings with the ID number or ASP template filename entered in the PRINTPAGETEMPLATE setting. See General Settings on page 16 for more information. 3. You may then use the {{printerfriendlylink}} tag anywhere in your site to have agnSmart!CMS Classic automatically generate the link to a printer friendly version of the current page.
You may preview your Page Template in a browser by clicking on the Preview Template button. With HTML Page Template, the content will not be populated (the specific articles will not be shown), but the tags will be displayed.

An Article List Template allows you to define which fields will appear and in what format when viewing the articles under a category when a visitor executes a category action. For example, you may have a category of Recent Press Releases. The list of articles appearing under the category will be determined in the Article List Template. You define which fields will appear, i.e., title, author, date created, abstract (teaser) or even the entire article. You also select how the fields will be formatted. For example, the title may be large and in bold in a specified font and color while the author and date may be smaller and in italics. To define the layout of a specific article within a list of articles, you build loops by inserting a beginning marker () and an ending marker (). The layout is then inserted into the Article Page Template using the {{content}} tag after it is populated with content from the database. Article List Templates contain: header section - the HTML before the  marker repeater section - the HTML between  and  markers

footer section - the HTML after the  marker.

7 Managing Content
Content is the main information that will appear to visitors of your website. Most users of Web Content Manager will need to work with some aspect of Content. In Web Content Manager, the Content Panel contains the categories and articles that make up this main information. Within the Content Panel is the Category hierarchy. The main category, the Root Category, contains all of the subcategories and are the holders of all articles. Articles can be created, edited or deleted, published or unpublished from these subcategories. Categories can also be created, edited or
deleted from within the Content Panel. Also contained in the Content Panel is the Trash Can icon. This holds all articles that have Articles in the Trash Can been deleted from a category. All articles in the Trash Can can either be moved back to a category to be used again or permanently deleted from the Trash Can.
CATEGORIES
Categories determine how articles are grouped and which templates are used. Because all of the articles in a single category use the same templates, articles should be grouped into a category based on topic and display. Related articles should be grouped to different categories if they require a different layout. For more information on viewing the articles assigned to a specific category. Categories can form a hierarchy with the top level category called the Root Category, as defined in the Root Category Preference setting. This section will discuss creating, viewing, editing and deleting categories. It will also look at ranking articles in a category as you wish them to appear to visitors of your website.

Articles are containers of the actual content displayed on the website. Articles are created from within a selected category. For example, an article may be the text of a press release, which is grouped in the PR Category. Articles are shown grouped by category and can be created, edited, deleted, or make visible/not visible on the website. When content is added or changed, it does not immediately appear on the website to visitors. It must go through the workflow approval process before being made visible. If a user without publishing privileges makes changes to content, a workflow email notification is sent to a designated publisher to approve or reject the changes. Below is information on workflow, creating, editing and deleting articles as well as making article visible or invisible to website visitors.
About Workflow The concept of multiple users updating content and then that content being saved in agnSmart!CMS Classic's database, but not visible to the public website until an editor has reviewed and published it (made it visible on the website), is called "Workflow". agnSmart!CMS Classics Workflow feature allows for greater control and efficiency when working with articles. Additions and changes to content on your website can be made without immediately impacting upon what visitors see on your public website. In addition to this, content editors can preview content before it is made visible on the public website. Workflow functions in agnSmart!CMS Classic are integrated with your organizations email system. This assures that proper notification of changes to content takes place and ensures greater control of your organizations website workflow. If a user is updating an article, its important that these changes are reviewed by an editor with publishing privileges before being made visible on the live website. The user performs the following tasks: 1. The user "Checks Out" the article. This gives the user exclusive access to this article. No other user can edit the article while it is checked out.
Workflow button
Once the user is happy with the changes and exits the Edit Article window, the user then "Checks In" the article by clicking the Check In icon. Users with publishing privileges do not need to check in
articles as they can approve their own changes.

10 User Accounts And User Groups

agnSmart!CMS Classic allows administrators to grant users both individual access to content and as groups to a range of content. For example, a sales manager can have a content editor security level setting with publishing privileges to several categories and can also be part of the sales staff user group. The rest of the sales staff user group can have access to change only content within the sales categories. By grouping users, it becomes much easier to manage security as changes to staff occur. Both User Accounts and User Groups are managed from the Setup Panel within Web Content Manager.
USER ACCOUNTS
User Accounts are used to log into Web Content Manager. User Accounts determine accessibility to functions and reports, depending on the predetermined security level of the user. User Accounts provide electronic fingerprints to track additions and changes made by account users. Username, security level and password are defined in the User Accounts icon located on Web Content Manager Setup Panel.
When agnSmart!CMS Classic is first installed, the Administrator is the only user account with access to Web Content Manager. Security level and access can be changed in Preferences, Setup Panel.

For example, a new sales staff member is set up with an individual user account which is added to the sales staff user group. The new staff member now has access to all content categories pertaining to sales while still maintaining their individual security level. Also, a user can be a member of several user groups. For example, a sales manager can be a member of the sales user group as well as the management team user group.

13 Extranet
With agnSmart!CMS Classic Professional / Enterprise, you can have Extranet functionality that enables a password protected "Members Only" area on your website. Visitors must log in to view content. This is particularly useful where premium content needs to be displayed such as: Business to business product information, Premium news content, or Subscription based information service.

EXTRANET VISITOR FORM FUNCTIONS

The agnSmart!CMS Classic Extranet provides you with form handlers to enable your website visitors to self-help themselves without the need for Administrator intervention should the need arise. The form handlers handle: Extranet user self registration, Extranet User Email Account Validation and activation, and Extranet User Login validation.
Extranet User Self Registration The Extranet user self registration routine allows your website visitors to self register for access to protected areas within your website. This is handy if you want many people to register and you do not want to do this manually through Web Content Manager.

it's a good idea to put all of your Extranet articles into a special category with the "Display In Category Lists" option set to off. This way, the articles will not be able to be browsed to via any navigation on your site.
The self registration routine, extranet_register.asp, is an ASP file to which you post form values. It then adds the relevant information into your agnSmart!CMS Classic database and then redirects the visitor to the relevant page depending upon the success of the registration. In order to implement self registration, you need to create: 1. A registration form to capture extranet user information. 2. A successful registration article to notify the user that their registration was successful. This is determined by the setting EXTRANET_REGISTER_SUCCESS_ARTICLEID. 3. A registration failure article that is defined through the setting EXTRANET_REGISTER_FAIL_ARTICLEID. 4. Optionally, if your Extranet users need to validate their email address as defined in the setting, EXTRANET_REQUIRE_VALID_EMAIL, you'll need to create two articles to notify Extranet users that their Extranet user account has been activated successfully or unsuccessfully. 5. If step 4 is applicable, then you'll need to create a text file which will become your email registration template. This provides the link that the visitor needs to click to activate their account. See Setting Up Registration Confirmation Email below. Setting Up Registration Confirmation Email If your website requires Extranet users who self register to validate their email address, create a text file that will form the template for the confirmation email. This text file contains some tags which, when rendered, form a full email customized to the Extranet user. The tags in the email are: {{$username}} - the Extranet user's login name {{$fullname}} - the Extranet user's full name {{$password}} - the Extranet user's password {{$email}} -the Extranet user's email address. {{$enable_link}} - the link that the Extranet user clicks to enable their account. This is automatically generated by agnSmart!CMS Classic. Once you have created this text file, upload it to the MEDIA area in Web Content Manager and then set EXTRANET_CONFIRMATION_EMAIL_LOCATION to point to the file's location.
Extranet User Account Self Activation Once the Extranet user has received the confirmation email generated by agnSmart!CMS Classic, they will click the enabling link in that email to activate their account. This links to extranet_enable.asp, and depending upon whether the self enabling was successful or
not, redirects the Extranet user to the location as specified in EXTRANET_ENABLE_SUCCESS_ARTICLEID and EXTRANET_ENABLE_FAIL_ARTICLEID respectively. Extranet User Login Extranet user logins are validated by the file subscriber_login.asp. This file accepts form input and checks whether the Extranet user has supplied a valid username and password. The form values that need to be sent to extranet_login.asp are:
Page 84 of 93
agnSmart!CMS
ExtranetUserName - A text field containing the extranet user's username. ExtranetPassword - A password field containing the extranet user's password. ExtranetStayLoggedIn -a checkbox that passes the value "true" to extranet_login.asp. If true, then a cookie will be set on the Extranet user's PC to facilitate a persistent login. If the Extranet user successfully logs in, they will be sent to the page on your website as defined in the settings EXTRANET_LOGIN_SUCCESS_ACTION and EXTRANET_LOGIN_SUCCESS_ID. If the incorrect username or password is supplied, the user is redirected to the page as specified in the settings EXTRANET_LOGIN_FAIL_ACTION and EXTRANET_LOGIN_FAIL_ID. For example, if EXTRANET_LOGIN_FAIL_ACTION is "article" and EXTRANET_LOGIN_FAIL_ID is 165 then a user will be taken to article 165 upon a failed login attempt.

14 Additional Features
Ensure that your other Email settings such as EMAILCOMPONENT are set up properly prior to implementing the Contact Us Emailer and Tell A Friend Emailer into production. Having a CONTACTUS_SUBJECT which looks correct when prefixed with "RE:" will ensure that your visitor knows what the email is about when they receive a reply from you. For example, Your Wine Enquiry becomes RE: Your Wine Enquiry in your visitor's Inbox when they receive your reply.
agnSmart!CMS Classic contains many additional features that can be used to enhance your website. By using these features, you will be able to proactively increase your websites exposure on the Internet.
POP-UP EMAILERS
agnSmart!CMS Classic comes with two pop-up emailers. These enable your site to receive feedback as well enable visitors to recommend a page on your site to a friend. Using these features together will increase traffic to your website. There are two pop-up emailers: Contact Us Emailer, and Tell a Friend Emailer.
Contact Us Emailer The Contact Us Emailer is an easy and convenient way for visitors to enquire about your product or your website. It also allows the website administrator to track feedback from visitors. In order to place a link to the Contact Us Emailer, use the {{contactuslink}} and {{/contactuslink}} tags around the text or image you want to become the link. For example: {{contactuslink}}For More Information, Click Here{{/contactuslink}} Use the Tag Generator in the Rich Text Editor to assist you in creating the tag. When a visitor opens the Contact Us Emailer pop-up window, they are prompted for their name, email address and message. When the visitor submits the form, the information is

Classic Root Directory. Having a TELLAFRIEND_SUBJECT that looks attractive to the recipient will ensure that the referred friend will visit the site. For example, Check Out This Great Wine Site I Found. Where {{searchbutton}} and {{searchfield}} are used, {{searchfield}} must precede {{searchbutton}}.
Tell A Friend Emailer The Tell A Friend Emailer is an easy way to generate extra visits to your website by allowing visitors to refer it to a friend. In order to place a link to the Tell A Friend Emailer, use the {{tellafriendlink}} and {{/tellafriendlink}} tags around the text or image you want to become the link. For Example: {{tellafriendlink}}Click Here To Refer A Friend{{/tellafriendlink}} When a visitor opens the Tell A Friend pop-up window, they are prompted for their name, their email address as well as their friends name and email address. The visitor can also attach a short message to go into the email. When the visitor submits the form, an email is sent to the friend containing the visitors message as well as a link to the page where the visitor would like to refer the friend to.
CREATING A SITE SEARCH

As your website content increases, you may create a Site Search to allow visitors to locate the exact information they need from your website. A Site Search compiles a list of articles containing a keyword your visitors may enter into the Search Field. Creating a Simple Site Search To create a simple Site Search: 1. Enter the {{searchfield}} tag in a page template or content block to insert a label and box where the search keyword can be entered by the visitor. 2. Enter the {{searchbutton}} tag to insert a Search button near the {{searchfield}} tag.

Sometimes it becomes necessary to create a more refined site search for your visitors. For example, you may want to limit the bounds of the search to a certain category or you may want to implement more advanced searching features such as phrase searches. With this in mind, agnSmart!CMS Classic can accommodate this by allowing you to create advanced search forms beyond the capabilities provided by the {{searchfield}} and {{searchbutton}} tags which provide only a simple site search. The advanced site search form must have the following properties: the form must submit its values to default.asp, and the form can either use the GET or POST method.
The form can also have the following items as input fields. The names of the input fields as well as their expected values are listed below: Input Fields
